I know that it is illegal to use artificial light to hunt deer. But I know of no regulation prohibiting hunting by moonlight. It was bright enough this evening to hunt much later than I actually did hunt.

Honest injun, I thought that you could hunt deer until you could not see well enough to shoot. Not much sense in the rifle hunters buying those thousand dollars scopes to get a few extra minutes of shooting in if the regulation is a half hour after sundown. It is still pretty light then.

Welcome to the brotherhood of east texas hunters ! The angel on your shoulder will keep telling you it's wrong but ignore her. Things that feel so good can't be wrong

OK, so there's a rule. So I won't deer hunt by moonlight. I knew that there had to be a catch. But I will still use the hunt until I can't see to shoot method to determine quitting time. I don't wear a watch. I'm not going to look at my phone to check the time as it blinds me. With my old eyes I'm probably legal anyway. If I'm off by a couple of minutes no one will know, including myself.

Had a guy in Oklahoma tell me the way he killed his biggest bucks was rattling on a full moon during the rut!

Sometimes we forget that full moons can occur during daylight hours. In fact, judging from the time that the moon came up on yesterday there very well may be a full moon visible during legal shooting hours today. I will have to try some rattling before coming back to the house. It was not working earlier this week.
